November 2019 Update: HAL Dry Docks, Charters & Groups

[VMax1700]

Here is the latest update of the Dry Dock, Charter and Groups file.  

Please consider this a 'work in progress' which will evolve from month to month. 

Noordam is still listed for a Dry Dock 23 November 2020 to 6 December 2020 although she has just completed a dry dock in Esquimalt, B.C. (October 2019).

She has no cruises currently listed for the period 23 November to 6 December 2020.

 

The file consists of information gathered from the internet or information kindly posted on these threads by other cruisers and should not be considered a complete indicator of group activity.

If you have information about groups charters or dry docks then please post here and I will update in the next file.

New information is shown in Red

(I see you have the same problem as I have of confusing the years! I am doing tax for 2018, it is 2019, soon it will be 2020 and cruisers are asking about HAL 2021 .  I still reckon 1968 was the best year! 😉)
